What it does
- Holds tape steady while you pull so the stretch goes on your piece, not back on the roll
- Grips Duck Brand electrical tape securely so you can work faster and grab the next piece quickly
- Built-in edge guides help you tear tape cleanly without fumbling or wasting material
- Sits flat on your workbench so you have both hands free to position your project
You want a tape dispenser that actually works. This 3D-printed holder grips your electrical tape in place so you pull with control. No more tape snapping back onto the roll and sticking. You get clean tears and faster work.
The design holds Duck Brand 282289 electrical tape with a firm grip. When you pull, the tape stays put. This means most of the stretch happens on the piece you are dispensing, not on what remains on the roll. You spend less time fighting with tape and more time on your actual project.
The serrated edge is there so you have a solid point to grab while pulling. It gives you a place to anchor the tape while your other hand stretches out a length. Once you pull, the tape snaps off clean. Quick, simple, and it stays in your workshop for the next job.

What it is made of
Designs like this print well in PLA. Compare the materials.
Printed plastic is strong for its size, but it is not metal. We have not load tested this design, so we do not publish a weight rating. Keep it out of a hot car and away from open flame.
